Another first in the local K-pop community, Ripples For Hope 2022 was one more platform that brought K-pop fans together through games by day and a spectacular concert by night.
With a spectacular line-up, Hallyuween was the first of its kind, pooling the bests Korean and local acts on its pioneer show.
Before the main event happened, there were a lot of activities inside the MOA Arena. Local fanclubs had set-up their tables showcasing different official and unofficial merch of the artists they support. Aside from that, they also prepared some games and prizes for the attendees.
